So just asking is there going to be like lore for each hero? And like how many factions are there gonna be and are they all going to have lore that they like fight each other?

[CraigFraser]

Yes, there will be lore for each hero.

Says almost all of it for me

I think this will be the first moba (sorta) game i will be interested in reading the lore for everything

[OwnageDaPwnage]

Yep I hope its good

[karsh]

i will be excited to read the lore on the fighters, and hopefully there will be some lore on the factions as well. This is looking to be an excellent game.

[Nerv]

will you intertwine the lore of various heros and factions to make a lore of the entire realm?

[Jearbear]

The main thing about lore in games like this is that it can't really go anywhere. Non of the rivalries in LoL will ever have a victor, because a champion dying would really mess up the game. Granted, I don't follow the lore that closely, so that might be my problem. I'm sure there's someway around it, though. I'm hoping for lore that can allow the world to be changing.

[Kenshin]

sounds good...

[karsh]

Just a hypothetical question. if a champion/hero gets into the game, that was created by a user/gamer, would the lore of the character be decided by the gamer him/herself? I ask, and call me wrong or right, i say what i believe, due to i think that if the brainchild of a gamer gets into the game, the character should have the lore developed by the gamer.

[FleurDeMur]

Assuming the gamer makes legitimately good lore, I agree with karsh.

[karsh]

of course, the lore would  have to be good. if the persons lore was like, he is god, and is unkillable, then yea, lol.

There are different factions? That would be cool, but where does it say that?

You're right regarding LoL lore, but maybe in this game it will have more of an effect. Even if it doesn't have a major effect, lore is interesting and provides good support to the game. Also, a game without any sort of backround really doesn't make much sense,

I'm sure that the creator would be able to create the lore if they created the character, but that would require the creators of the game allow a person to create a character. (how many times can you use "create" in a sentence?) Which would be awesome, but pretty unlikely I'm afraid. But you never know

[karsh]

the irony, though, is that if the person makes a character and all, they say they wont use, and then use pretty much an exact replica, with like 1 minor change, you should still be able to make the lore. and i mean no offense to anyone, but they will probably use at least one of the heros that the people are thinking up. Still, it would be nice to create the lore for a character you design, and then can be proud to say it is yours.

I hope so!  I want to see a massive frost demon

[karsh]

that would be fascinating to see, and to read the lore on. personally, i would hope for a shadow monster/demon.

Lore's really seperate a good game from a reall good game in my opinion. I gives the game SO much more depth and so much more interesting. Hopefully you'll be bringing them soon so i can get busy studying them ^^

I agree 100% its one of the reasons i have favored games like this over alot of other games that dont have as much lore if any at all. Lore really helps emerse players and it also tells you how hard people worked on the game or in this case are working on the game which means we can probably expect quality from it.
